DC 325

GENERAL PRECAUTIONS

• DO NOT work on an energized system;

make sure all power sources are off.

• DO NOT allow unqualified personnel to

perform electrical maintenance; only a

qualified marine electrician should work

on the electrical system.

• DO NOT work in a wet area.

• Use caution when connecting wires to

avoid reversing polarity.

• DO NOT alter wires, connectors or use

inferior parts; use OEM replacement

parts only.

Corrosion on the electrical connectors can

cause poor connections, shorts and ground

faults, and/or poor ground connections.

Check at least annually and clean as

required. DO NOT allow corrosion to build

on connections.

Inspect all terminals and make sure they are

tight.

Have the entire AC circuitry tested every

season by an experienced marine electri-

cian, especially the shore power cord. This

will detect any shorts, open wires or ground

faults. Also, have the polarity indicator sys-

tem inspected for proper operation.

Test outlets periodically by pressing the test/

reset buttons in the center of the face plate

to ensure proper operation.

The engine maintenance required on the

generator is similar to the main engines. The

most important factors to the generator's

longevity are proper ventilation, mainte-

nance of the fuel, ignition, cooling and lubri-

cation systems, and the AC alternator.

Maintenance schedules and procedures are

outlined in your generator owner’s manual,

follow them exactly.
